Documentary Featuring The Pirate Bay Soon To Debut

Apple and Steve Jobs aren’t the only tech sensations hitting the silver screen at the moment. A documentary titled “TPB AFK (The Pirate Bay Away From Keyboard)”, showcasing the long eventful story of the pioneers of file sharing torrent sites is scheduled to premiere at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival.

The subjects of the documentary are Peter Sunde, Fredik Neij and Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, the co-founders of ‘The Pirate Bay’. The 82 minute running film is expected to debut on 8th February.

In a trial dated back to February 2009, the 3 co-creators were convicted with $13 million for damage compensation in a copyright violation case.

In 2010, Director of the film Simon Klose started a ‘Kickstarter’ promotion to raise funds for covering the post-production costs. The documentary will be released online under the ‘Creative Commons License’, that will allow other users to share the film for free. The online release date is still unspecified.

Addressing a common statement made by the media industry, Klose stated that he couldn’t understand the claim of file sharing being a threat to creativity. He said that free access to cultures and contents was the only reason behind the online spark we are benefitting from today.

Viewers who are interested to make a contribution to the upcoming film are welcome to place pre-orders for digital copies priced at $10 and DVD disc versions worth $23 through official ‘TPB AFK’ website.
